Hi,
Thank you so much for your reply. When I choose Auto IP in the printer, I got it set as following:
Auto IP
IP: 169.254.248.171
Mask: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 169.254.248.171
When I add the IP to my Mac printers and try to print, I got the following error:
Connecting to printer...
Network host '169.254.248.171' is busy; will retry in 10 seconds
Also, when I try to access the printer web interface by typing the IP in the browser, it does not work.
I really appreciate if you can help in this.
Thanks,
Rafiq
Heya!
If the machine is getting an valid IP-address.
You can solve this problem by installing the printer manually on the MAC, and putting in the correct IP-address.
To do this firstly remove the printer in your printer queue by right clicking on it and selecting remove.
After this go to the plus-sign in the left-bottom corner, and choose IP at the top tabs in the new window.
Punch in the correct IP-address in printer name/address
In job queue write LP
and on Print using select the correct driver for the machine.
This should resolve your problem.
Thanks!
Hi,
I have Xerox Workcentre 3045 and I am connecting it to my DSL connection through IP. Yesterday, I find that the printer got conflict in IP and its IP changed, since then I cannot print because my Mac computers do not see the printer IP.
How can I solve this problem and get configure the printer IP?
Thanks for your help.
